Hi everyone. I’m watching my neighbors cat for the next few days. I’m a fur momma so I don’t have a great understanding of cats. Which is why I joined to get more insight and tips! My neighbors cat is actually a rescue and when she was a kitten we took turns feeding her on the street. She eventually took her in and it’s been a a good while since I’ve seen or interacted with her like I did when she was younger. I went in to feed her today and I approached the area slow I greeted her but subtlety and then as I was just trying to put food in her bowl she bit me. And she kept trying to bite my legs and had her back arched a lot of the time. I know she was scared and afraid or also maybe being territorial? My neighbor will be gone for 4 more days and I’m dreading this. I’m trying not to because I know they can feel that. Any tips or tricks would be appreciated!! All I have to really do is make sure she has food, her litter box is tidy, and she has water BUT she’s making that impossible for me to check. The last thing I want is for her to really get me. I’ve been wearing pants and long sleeves to be safe.
